Quick and Easy LEED Calculators

By Andrew

The most robust online calculators for LEED are within LEED Online, but here are a few ‘public access’ resources that you could consider pointing out to clients for research.

  • Concrete and aggregate supplier Holcim Ltd has a LEED calculator for ALL of the credits in every LEED rating system.  It’s not for reliance purposes, but a great interactive educational resource for those interested in LEED certification.
  • EcoScoreCard powers the environmental calculators for quite a few building material manufacturers.  Rather than list each site individually, you can visit this site and click to them all.  Excellent for MR reference.
  • Walkscore.com is great for estimating community connectivity within the SS division.  The limit is that it only has data for the 40 largest cities in the US but, come on, it’s free.

Are there any sites that you think are noteworthy, please share them.
